Alex Hodgson's second poster presentation at ISCC and GCxGC 2018. He describes how data processing of terpene analysis by GC-VUV can be automated by VUV Analyze software. The data was processed at a rate of 30 seconds per sample, and relative mass % of terpene composition provided for each of the samples analyzed.

A method for terpene analysis by GC–VUV is described that results in significantly shorter GC run times, the deconvolution of co-eluting analytes, and clear isomer differentiation. A new quantitative approach to terpene characterization is also introduced that provides automated compositional analysis of terpenes in mixtures.

This article describes the capabilities of GC-VUV in cannabis terpene analysis including clear isomer differentiation and the deconvolution of co-eluting peaks. GC-VUV complements mass spectrometry by fully characterizing isomers and isobars.
